The paper introduces the Medaka Inbred Kiyosu-Karlsruhe (MIKK) panel, a vertebrate genetic resource for genotype-to-phenotype studies, enabling controlled experiments on complex traits.

The paper analyzes genomic and epigenomic variation in the MIKK panel using long-read sequencing and pan-genome graphs, revealing novel structural variants and methylation patterns.

The paper improves in vivo imaging in fish by optimizing anaesthesia, fluorescent protein selection, and pigmentation removal.

The paper shows neural stem cells induce the formation of an outer border cell lineage during medaka organogenesis through clonal analysis and 4D imaging.
